April 13th National Plank Day!



Dear Tip Toppers,

Tip Top has a National Plank Day...April 13th   
What is Plank?  Plank is a core exercise that is in the push up position and holding the position with your forearms bent. Maintain  your back and legs straight. 
The reason why I call April 14th National Plank day is that plank is one of my strength evaluations.  Matt Burr, 16 years old had the plank record at twenty minutes within the past 4 months.  Kenny Herrmann 10 years old broke the record at 23 minutes and ten seconds....WOW!

I received BREAKING NEWS that Matt Burr that night did a 31 minute plank!  To me that was a mental exercise then a physical one!  Great job Matt!

Anyone who wants to challenge the 31 minute plank please let me know!
